This dress was ordered well in advance of an early summer wedding, but arrived the night before, which was quite nerve racking. Unfortunately, the size ran a bit small. I usually wear an 8 and ordered a 10. So, with hours to spare, I had it altered just in time for the event. LITB was aware of the delay and, to their credit, we were fairly compensated. At any rate, this dress was an ABSOLUTE show stopper - incredible quality and design for the price. There are several layers, so it was a bit warmer than expected, but that really added to the amazing design texture. It was fun to truly feel like a million bucks for an evening.
